More quotes by Mother Teresa

Image
I have come to you, Jesus, to take your touch before I begin my day. Let your eyes rest upon my eyes for a while let me take to my work the assurance of your friendship. Fill my mind to last through the desert of noise. Let your blessed sunshine fill the peaks of my thoughts. And give me strength for those who need me.
Mother Teresa

Every country I love and I am a child of God to love the humans.
Mother Teresa
Image
The joy of the presence of Jesus, you must be able to give wherever you go. But you cannot give what you don't have. That's why you need a pure heart, a pure heart that you will receive as a fruit of your prayer, as a fruit of your oneness with Christ.
Mother Teresa
Image
I don't think there is anyone who needs God's help as much as I do. Sometimes I feel so helpless and weak. I think that is why God uses me. Because I cannot depend on my own strength, I rely on Him twenty-four hours a day.

Be the living expression of God's kindness: kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile, kindness in your warm greeting.
Mother Teresa

No matter how tired you are, no matter how physically exhausting this work may be, it's beautiful to bring a smile into someone's life, to care for someone in need. What greater joy can there be?

The way you help heal the world is you start with your own family.

Image
The future is not in our hands. We have no power over it. We can act only today. We have a sentence in our Constitution that says: 'We will allow the good God to make plans for the future - for yesterday has gone, tomorrow has not yet come and we have only today to make Him known, loved and served.' So we do not worry about the future.

All that we need to know all the wisdom of the cosmos we will find in our own heart
Mother Teresa

Mary, my dearest Mother, give me your heart so beautiful, so pure, so immaculate, your heart so full of love and humility, that I may be able to receive Jesus in the Bread of Life, love Him as you loved Hitn and serve Him in the distressing disguise of the poorest of the poor.
Mother Teresa

Suffering, if it is accepted together, borne together, is joy.
Mother Teresa
Image
Go out into the world today and love the people you meet. Let your presence light new light in the hearts of people.
Mother Teresa
Image
I am busy with my work. My path is clear. I see somebody dying, I pick him up. I find somebody hungry, I give him food. He can love and be loved. I don't look at his color, I don't look at his religion.

It is Christmas every time you let God love others through you.
Mother Teresa
Image
Prayer is as necessary as the air, as the blood in our bodies, as anything to keep us alive-to keep us alive to the grace of God.
Mother Teresa
Image
Let me thus praise You in the way You love best: by shining on those around me. Let me preach You without preaching, not by words, but by my example, by the catching force, the sympathetic influence of what I do, the evident fullness of the love my heart bears to You. Amen.
Mother Teresa

I try to give to the poor people for love what the rich could get for money.
Mother Teresa
Image
A day lived without doing something good for others is a day not worth living.
Mother Teresa

I know I would not be able to work one week if it were not for that continual force coming from Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament.

The more we can give in our silent prayer, the more we can give in our active life.
